I can take a set of drag lites that look like centerlines and make them look brand new.. its just a lot of work. First I use mother polish until i cant possibly get them any more shiny and then i use mothers billet polish and they really shine.
use the power ball too

Friend bought it at the OC cruise a few years back and has left me use it on my pro stars a few times.
Never seen anything that does as good a job with as little work.

I hope the stuff you guys are suggesting is better than what I used: Mothers aluminum polish. Once a year I spent one whole day of bending my fingers in directions they are not supposed be, to do my Welds (15 x 10's and 15 x 8's). They turn out great, but man, there has to be an easier way. One little trick I learned to keep the shine last longer with my Welds was to wash/dry them individually. Go to each wheel with the garden hose, soapy water and chamois, do one wheel at a time, and dry it immediatly!!! Then, move on to the next. One spot of water left behind and you gotta break out the aluminum polish again. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/maad.gif)
